  1. Place the cauliflower in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by at least 2.5cm. Add a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil. Cook with the lid on until the cauliflower is tender enough to pierce with a fork, about 6 to 8 minutes. Drain in a colander, keeping some of the cooking water.
  2. Return the saucepan to a medium-high heat and melt a teaspoon of the butter. Add the garlic and spring onions and cook for 30 seconds. Tip in the spinach, season with a little salt, cover and cook until wilted, about 6 to 7 minutes.
  3. Put the drained cauliflower and the milk into a blender and blend until smooth. Pour the purée back into the saucepan with the greens, then stir in the remaining butter and season with salt and pepper. Keep warm over a low heat until ready to serve.
  4. Spoon the mash into a serving bowl and finish with the last teaspoon of butter on top.
